In Florida, electrical contractors must be licensed by the Department of Business and Professional Regulation (DBPR) Electrical Contractors' Licensing Board. An electrical contractor (EC license) conducts business in the electrical trade field and has the experience and knowledge to install, repair, alter, add to, or design electrical wiring, fixtures, appliances, apparatus, raceways, and conduit, including electrical installations and systems within plants and substations.

You can verify a contractor's license status using the DBPR's online license search portal at myfloridalicense.com. Search by the contractor's name or license number to confirm the license is current and in good standing.

Always ask your electrician whether permits are required for your project. Many electrical jobs in Florida require building permits and inspections to ensure compliance with the Florida Building Code. Your contractor should be able to guide you on permit requirements specific to your work.
